Do you suffer from Plantar Fasciitis?
You might be dealing with plantar fasciitis if:
Heel pain is worst when you take your first steps in the morning
Pain eases as you move, then returns later in the day
Standing or walking for long periods makes symptoms worse
Rest or stretching hasn’t fully resolved the problem
Pain keeps flaring up when you return to activity
You’ve been told it’s plantar fasciitis but aren’t sure what to do next
Plantar fasciitis is common — and frustrating when it lingers. If you think treatment may be an option, book an obligation-free 10-min assessment call with a podiatrist.
A PRACTICAL, HONEST APPROACH TO PLANTAR FASCIITIS
At Podiatry Health & Wellness, plantar fasciitis is treated based on what’s driving your symptoms, not a standard checklist.
That means:
We assess contributing factors like load, foot mechanics, and activity levels
We don’t jump straight to shockwave therapy or orthotics unless appropriate
We explain what’s likely aggravating the condition
Treatment is tailored to help settle pain and reduce recurrence
Our aim is to help you recover sensibly — not chase quick fixes.
HOW PLANTAR FASCIITIS IS TYPICALLY TREATED
Plantar fasciitis often develops due to repeated overload on the plantar fascia, rather than a single cause.
Depending on your assessment, treatment may include:
Targeted treatment to reduce pain and irritation
Advice around load management and activity modification
Shockwave therapy where clinically appropriate
Custom orthotics only if they’re likely to improve outcomes
Footwear guidance and longer-term management strategies
We’ll explain what’s involved, what recovery looks like, and whether surgery is necessary — so you can make an informed decision.
A QUICK WORD ABOUT SHOCKWAVE THERAPY AND ORTHOTICS
Shockwave therapy and orthotics can be effective for plantar fasciitis — but they’re not required for everyone.
Our approach is simple:
We don’t assume plantar fasciitis needs shockwave therapy
Orthotics are recommended only when they address contributing factors
Both are used as part of a broader treatment plan, not as standalone solutions
